I don’t know how you’re supposed to live knowing that this unique person who is your best friend simply let you down after years and years of friendship. I really don’t know. I thought that my best friend would always be there… But apparently he’s gone for good and…even if I have other friends, nobody can replace him!

When you have a best friend you deeply know that wherever you go, you’re not going there alone. And now I just feel like I am… alone, without anybody by my side or watching my back anymore.

It’s really crazy because he was and still is the person who give me strength, but he took everything back so easily in just a few seconds…

But as he said, life goes on and… I guess I just have to keep holding on to what and who I love (but that includes him, so whether I want it or not he’ll always be a part of my life ?!) & enjoy the ride of life 😉

Or even Ali Baba’s cave… Yes, that’s what working in a charity shop looks like! You can find everything you want, good or bad, but there’s everything : Clothes, Shoes, DVDs, CDs, Books, all sorts of accessorizes, bric-a-brac things, kids’ stuff …

The other day I found these really lovely dress and top. They’re nice, aren’t they? The shoes come from France, but I thought that they looked good with my new purchase!

As you may have guessed, I really like working there! I’m not paid, that’s true, I’m working as a volunteer, but who can dream of a better job when you have nothing but your Baccalauréat?! Honestly?!

I’m doing all kind of things like tidying, cleaning and tidying again but my favorite part of the job is when a donation comes and you open the bags which have just been brought and … SURPRISE (it’s often a good one, sometimes a REALLY good one & unfortunately it’s very bad some other times!!! :s) Anyway, the excitement’s always there!!!!

Moreover (and in my opinion, that’s what’s the most important thing when you do some volunteering in a charity shop such as the Sue Ryder one) all this work is eventually done for a good cause. Indeed the money we collect helps to provide incredible care for people with life-changing illness. Wether it’s bringing comfort to someone’s final days or enabling them to make the most of their lives…

Germany’s here guys! I can’t believe I had some Ritter Sport chocolate in England! It is exciting, isn’t it? Oh my god, and how beautiful is that when the thing that reminds us Germany is nothing but the yummy yummy Ritter Sport chocolates <3. I’m a huge fan, I know… or maybe worse, an addict!!! :s

Everything began when I madly felt like having some chocolate the other day. And God heard or felt my distress, I don’t know, but there was some Ritter Sport chocolate in the “naughty drawer” of the kitchen…

That was really nice!!! Mmmmm… Most of English people will tell you that there’s nothing like their precious cup of tea (which is true, I won’t deny it), BUT I TELL YOU that there’s nothing like a good chocolate bar!

I’m sure you know what it is to suddenly need to eat an entire chocolate bar up! Everybody’s the same (honestly!) when it comes to chocolate!!!! 😉

You want some now, right? Well don’t worry… if you’re in England, you’ll find an opened supermarket on Sunday, even at 10 o’clock in the evening 😉 ! Otherwise you may have to wait, but you can still enjoy it while looking at the following delicious pictures :p !

“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.” C.M. Chultz

That’s quite true, so Keep holding on to what you love & enjoy the ride of life (but most of all, enjoy CHOCOLATE!!!!) 😉
